once in a while you get the grits urge. Most times I'd rather stick to biscuits and gravy.

from Alabama. I tried to make grits, fried ocra and fried chicken and all I ended up with was every window in the house covered with a film of grease...never got the knack!

There's nothing better than grits with a couple of fried eggs. Fried in butter, naturally.

7. Never tried it with the cheese, but it sounds good! |
|
Even ground parmesian cheese, the real stuff. Skip the butter in that case, it will detract from the overall dish.

9. I confess, grits are great! |
|
Scrambled eggs, bacon, toast, and grits with butter and salt. You just don't know what you're missing! :9
Now the real question is: "Biscuits and sausage gravy?" but not with grits. No, no, no.

Yep, it's true. I'm not really an uptight WASP. :wow: Thank God, I've finally found my people!
More grits for the real folks -- and brew me up a cup of Sanka while you're at it. :D

23. Well, cooked for a proper length of time... |
|
Northern grits tend to be under-cooked. I prefer it with butter and salt- and a little bit of sugar. It has to be smooth, not lumpy.
Perhaps I'm being a tab picky. lol

26. After they are "done," |
|
put the whole pan in a larger pan of simmering water --like a steam line-- and then cook your aigs. I also use milk instead of half the water. Yum!

28. Never, ever buy instant or quick-cooking grits. |
|
Aunt Jemima is good to me. And go to a store that sells a lot of grits so they will be fresh.

Nothing like grits to start a day as the sun comes a shining through the slash pine making the dew on the grass sparkle like diamonds.
